There is a dove called a Release Dove that rises up and circles and comes home. From my understanding, these are bred from white doves and homing pigeons. And then there is the translation thing going: in other languages dove=pigeon. Could Noah have release a homing pigeon?Paula, the quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17662592713610165406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27429478.post-71965929043796592082007-03-08T14:10:00.000-05:002007-03-08T14:10:00.000-05:00I wondered the same thing as PS, are we to draw pa...I wondered the same thing as PS, are we to draw parallels between the doves and the sheep? And, when the angel announced the birth of Christ... who did God choose the hear it first? The most educated? The aristocracy? No... the shepherds! The lowly, dirty shepherds... abiding in the fields, keeping watch over the flock. God's wisdom chooses the perfect vehicle every time! (OH, and for what it's worth... the doves in NC don't seem any smarter than those you describe near Philadelphia!) :)Mrs. Goodneedlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07453388163219666450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27429478.post-65757471791913542032007-03-08T10:03:00.000-05:002007-03-08T10:03:00.000-05:00Are doves the sheep of the bird world?

Pretty but...pretty stupid?<BR/><BR/>You can watch the doves and gain some insite into the Biblical references that the rest of us don't have.<BR/><BR/>When I moved here, the neighbor (as country neighbors go) to the west had sheep. I didn't get to know their traits, but the pastor used many sheep images in his funeral sermon for this farmer. I'm sure that farmer understood the Biblical references better than the rest of us.LoieJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01977264499770654307noreply@blogger.com
